• Appendix A - RESaUTION ON SANCTUARY
WHEREAS our faith is grounded In God who demands justice and calls us to show love for
our neighbors, and
WHEREAS the Judeo-Christian faith was born in the travail of escape as Yahweh commanded
Moses to set aside cities and places of refuge in Canaan where people could seek asylum
from the "blood avengers," cities of refuge which were for the Israelites "as well as
the stranger and sojourner among you." (Num. 35:15); and
WHEREAS God was remembered as the one who brought us out of the bondage of Egypt (Ex.
20:2), and God's identity was rooted in action and proclaimed in the verbs of struggle:
leading, delivering, freeing; and
WHEREAS the Refugee Act of 1980 states that a refugee qualifies for political asylum in
the U.S. if it can be established that he or she: "owing to a well-founded fear of per-
secution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social
group or political opinion, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that
country"; and
WHEREAS the United States is a signatory to the United Nations Convention relating to
the status of refugees which states, "No contracting state shall expel or return a re-
fugee in any matter whatsoever to the frontiers of territories where his life or freedom
would be threatened on account of his race, religion, nationality, membership of a par-
ticular social group, or public opinion"; and
WHEREAS refugees from El Salvador and Guatemala are fleeing to the United States to
escape persecution, murder and civil war; and
WHEREAS the United States Government has refused to grant refugee status to Salvadorans
26
Minutes
and Guatemalans, contrary to the definition of "refugee" stated in the U.N. Convention
and Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees of 1977, signed by the United States and
adopted by the U.S. Congress in the Refugee Act of 198O; and
WHEREAS in our country, large numbers of Salvadorans and Guatemalans are arrested, con-
fined for extended periods of time, returned to their homelands where their welfare and
lives are further threatened, or forced to live "underground"; and
WHEREAS The Fourteenth General Synod of the United Church of Christ voted to issue "an
immediate call to eill pastors and congregations urging an active advocacy campaign to
call upon the United States Government to grant to El Salvadoran and Guatemalan
nationals seeking refuge in our country the privilege of (extended voluntary departure
status) until they can return home with a reasonable degree of safety.
"The Fourteenth General Synod applauds those congregations granting sanctuary to El
Salvadorans and Guatemalans and encourages all our congregations to consider providing
sanctuary until such time as extended voluntary departure status is granted"; and
(Extended Voluntary Departure is a legal category in the Immigration and Naturalization
Act granting temporary asylum to foreign nationals caught outside their country during
times of strife. The State Department suspends this status as soon as these nationals
can return home safely.)
WHEREAS the Conference Ministers throughout the United Church of Christ stated in
February, 1985:
"We hold in our hearts and cherish the oppressed of every land; the people of South
Africa and Afghanistan, Ethiopia and the Philippines, Poland and Korea, Chile and
Peru and in the United States, for we believe that, wherever human rights are denied
and the human spirit is crushed, Jesus Christ is denied and the Gospel despised.
"During these days together, we have been stunned by eyewitness accounts of the
violence being done to the church in Central America and by the message on the lips
of trusted friends telling of misery, fear and heavy burdens that have become the
common experience of people in that part of the world."
THEREFORE BE IT RESaVED that the 186th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference
of the United Church of Christ joins with the United Church of Christ Conference Minis-
ters and calls upon congregations to
1. "Explore the Biblical concept of sanctuary and the historic place of the United
States as a 'safe and propitious asylum for the unfortunates of other countries'
(George Washington);
2. "Support with your prayers and, if possible, with your gifts those congregations
and individuals engaged in non-violent civil disobedience; those who risk penal-
ties by offering shelter, refuge and a home to those fleeing the violence of the
world;
3. "Urgently and prayerfully consider participating in the 'sanctuary movement'."
BE IT FURTHER RESaVED that the Council for Mission Outreach and Social Responsibility
be instructed to communicate this action of the Annual Meeting to the appropriate state
and national bodies and provide appropriate resources for the above study and action.
BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED that the 186th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference
of the United Church of Christ urges the U. S. government to grant to El Salvadoran and
Guatemalan nationals seeking refuge in our country the privilege of "extended voluntary
departure status" until they can return home with a reasonable degree of safety.

• Appendix B - RESOLUTION ON SOUTH AFRICA
WHEREAS the 176th Annual Meeting of the MACUCC in 1975 stated, "We as Christians re-
affirm the love of God between all people, assert the right of each person to justice
and realize that peace by repression is not the true peace of Jesus, and, as the Body of
Christ, continue to deplore the dehumanizing effects of apartheid, realizing that
'liberation of one particular group of people can be authentic only insofar as it in-
cludes freedom for the others' (Moltmann)"; and
WHEREAS the 177th Annual Meeting of the MACUCC in 1976 voted to "intensify efforts to
bring the moral and financial leverage of the church to bear on corporations to work in
South Africa for effective reform of present injustice"; and
WHEREAS, after many years of struggle, the 178th Annual Meeting of the MACUCC in 1977
voted:
"The apartheid policies of the White minority government of the Republic of South
Africa are supported and in truth encouraged by the continual presence of United
States businesses and corporations. Those corporations should cease operations and
withdraw from the Republic of South Africa until the time when there is a majority
government chosen by the people of South Africa in free elections.
WE THEREFORE URGE that individuals, churches, conferences, and instrumentalities
exert moral pressure on United States corporations and businesses to withdraw from
the Republic of South Africa and to take all actions necessary to achieve this goal.
In the event that withdrawal Is not accomplished, we as individuals and as a corpor-
ate church shall continue to reap the financial and material benefits accruing from
the physical and spiritual misery of the majority of South Africans who are Black
and Coloured."; and
WHEREAS "The World Alliance of Reformed Churches, in which the United Church of Christ
is a member, in its June, 1982 meeting in Ottawa, Canada declared apartheid a "theologi-
cal heresy,... a travesty of the gospel... in the persistent disobedience to the Word of
God"; and
WHEREAS the political situation is deteriorating in South Africa. The government has
responded brutally to protests against the new constitution which denies Blacks, who
constitute 72 per cent of the population, the rights of citizenship, voting, and politi-
cal representation, killing several hundred unarmed civilians. The government also has
accelerated the forced removals of Blacks from urban areas to the desolate so-called
homelands. When Black workers in November, 1984 staged a mass strike in the key indus-
trial areas around Johannesburg, the government detained leaders of the stayaway. The
government continues to harass religious leaders such as Bishop Desmond Tutu, 1984 Nobel
Prize laureate and Anglican bishop of Johannesburg; Allan Boesak, President of the World
Alliance of Reformed Churches, and Archbishop Dennis Hurley, Archbishop of Durban and
President of the Southern African Catholic Bishops' Conference; and
WHEREAS Bishop Desmond Tutu has said, "Those who invest in South Africa Invest in a sys-
tem which we have described as being evil, as unchristian as Nazism ever was. They in-
vest In a system that depends on Black misery and suffering. "
Bishop Desmond Tutu in January, 1985 once again called for political, diplomatic, but
above all, economic pressure on South Africa as the last chance to avert the blood bath;
and
WHEREAS in consultation with ecumenical partners, the Directors of the United Church
Board for World Ministries in November, 1984 adopted guidelines and criteria to deter-
mine which corporations operating in South Africa should be considered supportive of the
apartheid system and, therefore, candidates for divestment. This policy now has been
adopted by other denominations, and there is likely to be an ecumenical coalition coop-
eratively evaluating corporate operations, pressuring corporations to change policies, .
and pursuing divestment when such efforts are unsuccessful;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the 186 th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference
28
Minutes
of the United Church of Christ supports the following United Church Board of World Min-
istries resolution on South Africa related to the 15th General Synod:
That the United Church Board of World Ministries Board of Directors, in view of the
escalating repression in South Africa, refusal of the apartheid regime to commence sig-
nificant political change, and requests from South African church leaders to undertake
significant forms of economic pressure in this critical period to avert a major blood-
bath:
1. "Commits the United Church Board for World Ministries to a principle of full
divestment from corporations with direct investments in South Africa and banks
and other financial services institutions engaging in loans, credits, or ser-
vices to the government of South Africa or its instrumentalities or agencies or
making loans to the private sector for the provision of products, services, or
technology that maintain the apartheid system.
2. Supports the adoption of a pronouncement and proposal for action at the Fifteen-
th General Synod advocating full divestment. "
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the I86th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference of
of the United Church of Christ:
1. Reaffirms its continued solidarity with all of the people of South Africa who
are in the pursuit of freedom, justice, and political rights;
2. Requests that all members of the United Church of Christ remember the people of
South Africa in their prayers; and
3. Calls upon members of the United Church of Christ to actively participate in the
anti-apartheid struggle as an urgent matter of Christian conscience. To that
end, it asks that members of the United Church of Christ:
A. Refrain from purchasing Krugerrands, the South African gold coin;
B. Participate in vigils and demonstrations against the apartheid system;
C. Support legislation that would impose restriction on U.S. economic invest-
ment in and trade with South Africa;
4. Urges that all congregations participate in the anti- apartheid struggle through:
A. Providing educational and action programs to members and their community on
the situation in South Africa;
B. Placing signs which state 'Free South Africa' on their grounds;
C. Remembering the people of South Africa and their problems in corporate pray-
ers.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Board of Directors of the Massachusetts Conference of
the United Church of Christ recommend to the Congregational Fund investment policies
consistent with the action of the United Church Board for World Ministries, these guide-
lines be followed, and request a report on investment actions taken.

Background : The following PROPOSAL FOR ACTION seeks to assist in the further implementa-
tion of the Pronouncement: EMPOWERING THE LAITY FOR MINISTRY, which was introduced and
adopted by the 13th General Synod meeting in Rochester, N. Y. in I98I. Original sponsors
of the Pronouncement included the Eastern North Carolina Association, the Western North
Carolina Association, the Eastern Virginia Association, . and the Board of Directors of

Minutes
the Southern Conference of the United Church of Christ. This PROPOSAL FOR ACTION Is
being recommended to the 15th General Synod by the Church Life and Leadership Commiss-
ion, the Board of Directors of the Southern Conference, and the Eastern North Carolina
Association.
Summary : This PROPOSAL FOR ACTION, like the Pronouncement upon which it is based,
affirms the concept of ministry as the calling for all people of God (the laos).
"Ministry" is defined as service to others in the name of Christ through the use of
one's gifts in response to the Holy Spirit. It embraces an understanding of ministry
that can find expression and be carried on within, through, and beyond the programs and
activities of the institutional church. It seeks to draw out the fuller range of impli-
cations for the life and mission of the United Church of Christ stemming from the
Pronouncement.
The Call to Action:
WHEREAS the 13th General Synod of the United Church of Christ has adopted the Pronounce-
ment entitled "Empowering the Laity for Ministry"; and
WHEREAS that Pronouncement includes a "Statement of Christian Conviction" which calls
upon the United Church of Christ and all its related institutions to "at once" begin
examining many fundamental issues related to ministry;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the 15th General Synod of the United Church of Christ:
1. Calls upon the Office for Church Life and Leadership to commission a major theologi-
cal study for use by local congregations. The study shall address:
•The biblical and historical foundation for affirming the ministry of the laity and
its theological implications,
•The doctrine of the Priesthood of all believers as interpreted by its present day
ecclesiastical and mission significance,
•The implications of the ministry of the laity for theological education including
approaches, curricula, and training experiences, and
•Those forces which enable and block empowering of the ministry of the laity within
the life of the church. This shall include, but not be limited to, problems related
to language, traditional doctrine, polity, practice, and structure within the life
and work of the United Church of Christ;
2. Calls upon the Office for Church Life and Leadership in consultation with the Divis-
ion of Christian Education of the Board for Homeland Ministries and the Association of
the United Church Educators and other instrumentalities as appropriate, to develop re-
sources and consultative services which shall assist local congregations in:
•Educational programs and consciousness-raising events,
•The use of materials to help laity identify their God-given gifts for ministry,
•Helping laity identify and claim specific calls to ministry,
•Assisting laity to design and plan their ministries,
•Providing a means of recognizing, supporting, and then being accountable for, the
ministries undertaken, and
•Developing ways of meeting the requirements for specific ministerial skills;
3. Calls upon local and regional structures of the United Church of Christ to commit
themselves to enable the whole people of God to be in ministry and to communicate such
needs and resources as they have for doing so to the appropriate national judicatories;
4. Calls upon the Office for Church Life and Leadership and all UCC-related theological
30
Minutes
schools to offer opportunities to laity for study and reflection which would help to
inform their ministries and to develop their skills and effectiveness;
5. Calls upon the Office for Church Life and Leadership to examine thoroughly current
issues of clergy crisis, burnout eunong church leadership, multiple role expectations and
demands, and forms of clergy/lay conflicts in the context of mutual ministry between
clergy/laity (exploring the role of spiritual disciplines and of support groups in re-
lation to sustaining both in ministry) ;
6. Calls upon the Office for Church Life and Leadership to examine within the UCC,
other denominations, and ecumenical movements successful models of faith renewal and
development and lay empowerment as they relate to the above-mentioned Pronouncement and
adapt them for use within the UCC;
7. Calls upon the Office for Church Life and Leadership to give a progress report of
its activities in implanenting this PROPOSAL FOR ACTION to the I6th General Synod;
8. . Calls upon the Office of Communication to feature articles and stories related to
the empowerment of the laity for ministry;
9. Calls upon the Stewardship Council to emphasize the stewardship of one's gifts for
ministry as well as one's financial resources and to put special emphasis on investment
of local church resources in the preparation of the laity for ministries in, through,
and beyond the institutional church setting; and
10. Calls upon all local congregations, regional judicatories, and national instrument
talities of the United Church of Christ to affina, celebrate, and seek ways to enable
the ministries of the whole people of God to be at all levels of the church's life and
mission.

• Appendix E - GUIDELINES FOR aERGY COMPENSATION 1986
The 186th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference of the United Church of Christ,
concerned with the growth of its churches and the compensation of its ordained leaders,
commends the effort of the local churches in endeavoring to reach the goals recommended
in Guidelines for Clergy Compensation 1Q8S.
31
Minutes
The 186 th Annual Meeting recommends:
1. that churches pay a minimum salary of $15,000 for a full-time pastor;
2. that churches not at the new minimum salary work toward the minimum and also at
improving C, D, E, and F below;
3. that churches already at or above the new minimum and also providing for C through F
give at least a cost-of-living increase.
(PLEASE NOTE that these abbreviated guidelines are designed to be used in conjunction
with Guidelines for Clergy Compensation booklet from the Conference office.)
A. CONSIDERATIONS FOR DETERMINING aERGY COMPENSATION:
While the ministry is a unique profession requiring special patterns of financial
compensation, several overall factors can be considered in determining the level of
support for clergy. The total compensation package could justly be comparable to
the median income of the parish amd perhaps be on a par with that of the local high
school principal, showing consideration for years of service and special skills and
training and including annual cost-of-living increases. The federal tax structure
is unique for clergy and the compensation package can be designated in a way to
maximize the pastor's income.
B. CASH SALARY:
The cash salary (not including housing and other expenses) ought to be no less than
$15,000 for a full-time person in ordained ministry; less than $15,000 would indi-
cate a person called to part-time work. This is a modest increase of approximately
3.5? over the minimum voted for 1984.
C. SOCIAL SECURITY ALLOWANCE:
The church, as an employer, should provide an amount equal to at least one-half of
the self- employment SS tax of 14$; such an allowance would be taxable income but
would ease the burden of the big SS tax bite.
•D. HOUSING THAT PROVIDES:
(1) a furnishings cdlowance, all utilities, and an equity development plan for those
living in a parsonage; OR
(2) a housing allowance for those who want to rent or own their homes.
E. BENEFITS SHOULD INaUDE:
(1) a pension plan, with a church contribution of 14$ of salary basis, which is (a)
at least 130? of cash salary plus any furnishings allowance for those living in
a parsonage or (b) cash salary plus housing allowance for those with such allow-
ance;
(2) a family protection plan, including disability insurance, which is an additional
1$ of the base used for the annuity;
(3) group life insurance, which costs $50 per year;
(4) medical and health insurance, plus dental care, as provided through the United
Church of Christ (e.g. $3030 in 1985 per family or $1515 for single);
(5) continuing education funding;
(6) sabbatical education funding;
(7) holiday and vacation time;
32
Minutes
(8) maternity/paternity paid leave.
F. ALL PROFESSIONAL EXPENSES:
These expenses are the cost of "doing business" for the church and should be paid
directly or fully reimbursed and not considered salary. Included are:
(1) books, professional subscriptions;
(2) professional memberships;
(3) travel expenses and car allowance (church-owned car or travel reimbursement);
(4) any other expenses incurred by the pastor and directly attributable to the exer-
cise of ministry.

• Appendix F - RESCLUTION ON ECONOMIC JUSTICE
WHEREAS the Bible cisserts the importance of economic justice and affirms that the jus-
tice of a community is measured by that community's treatment of the powerless:
Give justice to the weak and the fatherless: maintain the right of the afflicted and the
destitute. Rescue the weak and the needy: deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
(Psalm 82:3-4)
Come, 0 blessed of [God], inherit the realm prepared for you from the foundation of the
world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was
a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you
me, I was in prison and you came to me.
Truly I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my sisters and brothers,
you did it to me. (Matthew 25:34-36, 40b);
WHEREAS in 1984, the 185th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference of the United
Church of Christ reaffirmed its commitment to economic justice by adopting the Resolu-
tion on Peace with Economic Justice (vote 84-AM-13); and
WHEREAS in 1983, the 14 th General Synod of the United Church of Christ established an
"Economics and Theology Covenant Group" which is presently drafting a study document
intended as an invitation to discuss and debate the issue of faith and economics; and
WHEREAS the United States Roman Catholic bishops have already drawn up a first draft
(dated November 11, 1984) of a "Pastoral Letter on Catholic Social Teaching and the U.S.
Economy" (copies available for $3.50 from Origins, United States Catholic Conference,
1312 Massachusetts Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20005), and Dr. Avery Post, President of
the United Church of Christ has commended that pastoral letter to the United Church of
Christ for study.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the I86th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference
of the United Church of Christ affirms the following assertions of the Catholic bishops'
Pastoral Letter (numbers in brackets refer to paragraphs of that letter):
"Three priority principles should shape our economic policies and institutions both
domestically and internationally:" [Outline]
33
Minutes
First; "The fulfUlment of the basic needs of the poor is of the highest priority. Our
society has to consider goals such as productivity and economic efficiency, but not to
the further detriment of the disadvantaged of our world. This evaluation of decision,
policies, and institutions primarily in light of their Impact on the poor constitutes
the 'preferential option for the poor' which flows from biblical faith." [103]
This support of private ownership does not mean that any individual, group, organization
or nation has the right to unlimited accumulation of wealth. Especially when there are
so many needy people in our world, the right to own must bow to the higher principles of
stewardship and the common use of the goods of creation. There is a 'social mortgage'
on private property which implies that private property does not constitute for anyone
an absolute or unconditioned right. No one is Justified in keeping for his exclusive
use what he does not need, when others lack necessities. ' In our increasingly complex
economy, true stewardship may also sometimes demand that the right to own cede to public
Involvement in the planning or ownership of certain sectors of the economy. The
church's teaching opposes collectlvist and statist economic approaches. But it also
resists the notion that an unimpeded market automatically produces justice.
"We propose here certain necessary elements for a national strategy to deal with
poverty. . .
1. A key element in removing poverty is prevention through a healthy economy....
2. Vigorous action should be undertaken to remove barriers to full and equal employment
for women and minorities. . .
3. Reforms in the tax systems should be Implemented that would reduce the burden on the
poor.. . .
4. Government programs and policies should stimulate and foster self-help programs
among the poor. . . .
5. Schools should adopt policies leading to higher quality education for poor child-
ren. . . .
6. Improved child-care services should be made available to working parents." [208-216]
"Americans have a tendency to blame poverty on laziness, to stigmatize welfare recipi-
ents, to exaggerate the benefits actually received by the poor, and to overstate the
extent of fraud in welfare payments. .. .We strongly recommend that the United States
undertake a thorough reform of the welfare and Income support programs. Building on our
earlier discussion of moral principles, we propose six guidelines for that effort.
1. Public assistance programs should be adequately funded and provide recipients with
decent support....
2. The United States should establish national eligibility standards and a national
minimum benefit level for public assistance programs....
3. Public assistance programs should strengthen, rather than weaken, marriage and the
family.. . .
4. Within the limits just stated, public assistance programs should encourage, rather
than penalize, gainful onployment. . . .
5. The design of public assistance programs should Involve the participation of the
recipient population and avoid or minimize stigma to clients....
6. The administration of public assistance programs should show respect for clients,"
[222. 226-238]
"Voluntary action to overcome the wounds of injustice through almsgiving, sharing
possessions, hospitality, and other forms of charitable assistance is part of the
34
Minutes
Christian vocation and the duty of all human beings. Such acts of charity are, at their
best, attempts to heal the pain which injustice causes. But all have a larger responsi-
bility to remove the causes of this injustice in the community. .. .The works of charity
cannot and should not have to substitute for humane public policy." [123. 124. 208]....
The second orioritv principle is that "increased participation £SE the marginalized
takes priority over the preservation of privileged concentrations of power, wealth, and
income. " [104]
"Efforts to generate employment should be aimed specifically at bringing marginalized
persons into the labor force; should give priority to long term jobs; should produce
goods and services needed by society; should be as economically efficient as possible;
and should include both the private and public sectors." [Outline]
"The Church fully supports the right of workers to form unions or other associations to
secure their rights to fair wages and working conditions. .. .Along with these rights of
workers and unions go a number of important responsibilities. .. .They must not use their
collective power to press demands whose fulfillment would damage the rights of
others. . . . Racial and sexual discrimination has sometimes marred the exercise of power by
the U.S. trade unions. Organized labor has an important responsibility to work posi-
tively toward eliminating the effects of the injustice this discrimination has caused."
[111. 113]
"The degree of well-being which society enjoys today would be unthinkable without the
dynamic figure of the business-person, whose function consists of organizing human labor
and services necessary for the prosperity and progress of the community. The rights and
responsibilities of persons engaged in business and finance flow from the dual necessity
of both protecting their freedom to make these contributions and ensuring that this
freedom is accountable to the norms of justice and the common good of society. .. .The
work of business people, managers, investors, and financiers is a genuine Christian vo-
cation When carried out as a form of stewardship." [115. 122]
"We want to suggest several specific policy objectives which hold promise of improving
the employment picture in the United States. . . .
1. We recommend that the nation make a major new policy commitment to achieve full em-
ployment. . . .
2. We recommend increased support by the government for direct job creation programs
targeted on the structurally unemployed. ...
3. We recommend expansion of apprenticeship and job training programs in the private
sector which are administered and supported jointly by business, labor unions, and
government. . . .
4. We recommend the formation of local, state, and national coalitions to press for the
design and implanentation of job creation strategies....
5. We recommend improvement and expansion of job placement services on both the local
and national level." [178-185]
"Whatever the difficulties, the need for assistance to the developing world is undeni-
able. ...The relationship between expenditures on armaments and on develofment points to
a massive distortion of resources. ... Rather than promoting U.S. arms sales to countries
that cannot afford them, we should be campaigning for an international agreanent to re-
duce this lethal trade." [307. 314]
The third prioritv principle is that "meeting human needs and Increasing participation
should be prioritv targets in the investment of wealth, talent, and human energv. . . This
principle presents a strong moral challenge to policies that put large amounts of talent
and capital into the production of luxury consumer goods and military technology while
failing to invest sufficiently in education, in the basic infrastructure of our society,
or in economic sectors that produce the jobs, goods, and services that we urgently
need." [105]
35
Minutes
"The founders of our nation. . .launched an experiment in the protection of civil and po-
litical rights that has prospered through the efforts of those who came after them. We
believe the time has come for a similar experiment in economic democracy: the creation
of an order that guarantees the minimum conditions of human dignity in the economic
sphere for every person. ... All persons really do have rights in the economic sphere and
...society has a moral obligation to take the necessary steps to ensure that no one
among us is hungry, homeless, unemployed, or otherwise denied what is necessary to live
with dignity." [89. 86]
BE IT FURTHER RESaVED that the l86th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference of
the United Church of Christ communicate this resolution both to the National Conference
of Catholic Bishops, and to the United Church of Christ "Economics and Theology Covenant
Group" as input for the study document which that Covenant Group is preparing;
BE IT FURTHER RESaVED that the I86th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference of
the United Church of Christ direct the Racism and Economic Justice Task Force of the
Council for Mission Outreach and Social Responsibility to conduct at least five hearings
throughout the state to listen to and engage in dialogue with the churches and community
concerns about economics and justice which emerge from the Bishops' Pastoral Letter, the
"Economics and Theology Covenant Group" of the UCC, and other related documents. The
data and recommendations from these hearings will be compiled and presented in plenary
at the 187th Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference of the United Church of Christ.
BE IT FURTHER RESCLVED that the 186th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference of
the United Church of Christ remind all churches that the goals of this resolution cannot
be achieved by human effort alone. Churches and members are urged to seek spiritual
renewal as preparation for working toward economic justice.

• Appendix Q - RESOLUTION ON "A JUST PEACE"
WHEREAS we are all called to be peacemakers and there can be no lasting peace without
justice; and
WHEREAS the Bible presents us with the vision of shalom, linking peace with justice; and
WHEREAS the apostle Paul looks to the church as "first fruits of God's gift of grace and
Peace," challenging the church to prepare the way for a larger transformation of all
creation into shalom; and
WHEREAS peace is inextricably tied to justice and can only be realized in an atmosphere
of equity in which power is shared; and
WHEREAS the United Church of Christ has been for many years in the forefront of advocacy
for peace and justice; and

• Appendix H - RESOLUTION ON PRESUMPTIVE SENTENCING
WHEREAS the Old Testament teaches us that healing in the community must involve a resti-
tution for evil done (Exodus 22:5-6); and
WHEREAS Jesus cared for all people, including the sick, the poor, the foreign Samaritan,
the self-destructive prodigal son, and even the tax collector, considered to be a menace
to the financial health of the community; and
WHEREAS as Christians, we are called to be concerned about a situation in which, in the
midst of great prosperity, low- income people are refused Medicaid benefits, the infant
death rate soars, and homeless people walk the streets, and repression against the poor
who commit crimes out of frustration with their lives includes stepped-up use of the
death penalty in the South, and higher national rates of incarceration in jails and
prisons exist than anywhere but South Africa and the Soviet Union; and
WHEREAS there is a need in our criminal justice system for truth in sentencing, for more
uniformity of sentencing for similar offenders, and generally for more rationality in
the criminal justice process; and
WHEREAS the Governor of Massachusetts has introduced H.5009, Presumptive Sentencing, in-
to the Massachusetts General Court; and
WHEREAS H.5009 has the following goals, provisions, and problems:
1. It would revise the criminal code of Massachusetts, which has over 300 years of his-
tory; a worthwhile project, but one not to be undertaken in haste.
2. It would standardize criminal justice sentencing for violent crimes against persons
by requiring judges to sentence within narrow guidelines, or explain fully why they
sentenced outside those guidelines. This has merits, but as presently constructed,
H.5009 would increase time served to the point that the Department of Corrections
estimates that as many as 2,000 beds will have to be added to our already totally
overcrowded Massachusetts prisons.
3. All studies show that, when prisons are built, they are filled, and it is inconceiv-
able that this bill, if passed, would not cause us to build a major new prison in
Massachusetts. Recent average national figures show that $14,000 per year will be
required to maintain each new prisoner. And prison building costs are staggering.
Average Massachusetts Department of Corrections projections show that we are al-
ready planning to spend up to $98,000 per bed for prison space during the period
1978-88. The use of this Massachusetts taxpayers' money must be considered against
its possible alternative uses for more positive concerns. Prisons are generally
considered to be failures at changing the lives of offenders, while alternatives to
incarceration have higher success rates.
4. H.5009 will not deal with serious criminal justice problems in Massachusetts, such
as the fact that women prisoners in Hampden and Berkshire counties are held for
trial in Framingham, making contact with attorneys and family extremely difficult,
if not impossible. The 1980 census showed that, in this Commonwealth, 1.3 White wo-
men per 100,000 were in jail or prison, while 23.2 Black women per 100,000 were In-
carcerated; the rate for all Whites was 39.0 and for all Blacks was 529.2/100,000,
and more than one Black male in 100 was In jail or prison in Massachusetts in 1980.
5. H.5009 includes a provision for the prosecuting attorney to appeal the sentence if
the judge sets it below the sentencing guidelines, a possibility recently approved
by the U.S. Supreme Court and never before allowed in the history of our country;
and
37
Minutes
WHEREAS in Massachusetts the crime rate has declined every year since 1980, while the
rate of incarceration has increased, calling us as Christians into questions about our
treatment of the less fortunate, and H.5009 would only exacerbate this situation; and
WHEREAS more humane sentencing has been repeatedly called for in our church, most re-
cently by General Synod XIV in 1983 and by the I82nd Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts
Conference in 1981; with these declarations, we have joined hands with Christians of
many denominations at home and internationally who have called for mercy and humanity in
criminal justice practices.
THEREFORE BE IT RESaVED that the 186th Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Conference
of the United Church of Christ opposes H.5009, Presumptive Sentencing, or any other bill
in the Massachusetts General Court that would limit individualized treatment of criminal
offenders and result in longer periods of incarceration for more persons without improv-
ing our prison facilities and strengthening our efforts at rehabilitation; and
BE IT FURTHER RESCLVED that copies of this resolution be sent to Governor Michael
Dukakis, to Senate President William Bulger, to House Speaker George Keverian, and to
Senator Paul Harold and Representative Sal DiMasi, Chairpersons of the Senate and House
Criminal Justice Committees; and to Senator Patricia McGovern and Representative Richard
Voke, Chairpersons of the Senate and House Ways and Means Committees, and to principal
Massachusetts media.

• Appendix K - RESaUTION IN SUPPORT OF THE UFW TABLE GRAPE BOYCOTT
In order to be faithful to the scriptural mandate to establish justice and care for the
poor, the National Farm Worker Ministry has endeavored for 64 years to improve the liv-
ing and working conditions of farm workers, and, since the grape strike of 1965, has
supported the efforts of the United Farm Workers of America to gain collective bargain-
ing contracts that secure workers' rights.
WHEREAS the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act was passed in 1975 largely be-
cause of the pressure of a nationwide boycott of grapes (according to the Harris poll,
17 million Americans participated), and the officials of the State of California are
failing to protect the rights of farm workers, as required by the Agricultural Labor
Relations Act of 1975; and
WHEREAS over $30 million in wages of over 8,000 grape pickers remains unpaid because of
delays, up to eight years in length, and arbitrary action by the staff of the Agricul-
tural Labor Relations Board; and
WHEREAS 90? of the grape growers of California are evading the mandate of the law (some
by such tactics as transferring ownership of land and re-emerging as different com-
panies) and, in the summer of 1984, have ignored the United Farm Workers' call for
collective bargaining; and
WHEREAS the United Farm Workers, under the leadership of Cesar Chavez, has called for a
renewed international boycott of all non-union table grapes produced in California; and
39
